'The Contemplation' Video Trailer

Since December, my brother Jake (the one who is always doing something with a camera) has been working with a friend from church to make a book trailer for a book he's been wanting to publish. The book is called "The Contemplation." The friend let Jake read it and then Jake gave it to me to read. There is not an emotion left out from here that I did not feel! It made me laugh, cry, get mad, everything!

It's in the first person prospective (when a character is telling the story) about a teen named Judah (who our friend plays). He has an older brother who is a total weird-o, played by someone else we know, then his younger brother plays Judah's best friend, his fiance plays Judah's girlfriend. Another guy from church plays the dad in the story, and then there's a little sister.

This is how he explained it: It's a story of how a teenager (or anyone for that matter) would deal with depression if he did not have God in his life. He tries to be happy for his friends and sister, but inside there is something that is keeping him from truly being happy.

Anyway, Jake finished the book trailer just a little while ago and posted it on his FaceBook, which led to another website where you can watch and embed it. So, here it is:
